UPDATE: Chronicle columnist Gwen Knapp has a detailed story on the shootings that has far more information than this early report. Read it here.

KTVU and Bay City News Service have reported that two people were shot, including one with life-threatening injuries, outside Candlestick Park, according to San Francisco police.

They were shot in the parking lot of Candlestick around 8 p.m., Sgt. Michael Andraychak said. The injuries were initially described as non-life threatening, but Andraychak said one victim, a 24-year-old male, suffered life-threatening injuries.

The shooting occurred near the end of a preseason game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Oakland Raiders. Andraychak

said he did not know if the victims were in the parking lot because of the game, or if they were Raiders or 49ers fans.

There was no suspect description, and no one is in

custody.

Anyone who witnessed the shooting is asked to call the tip line at 4150) 575-4444 or text a tip to TIP411 and begin the message with SFPD.
